4th Annual Spring Arts Festival at the New Lenox Public Library is Fast Approaching!

Annual Fund Raiser for the New Lenox Public Library, Saturday, April 28th, 7p to 11p - 4th Annual Spring Arts Festival sponsored by the Friends

This Saturday, April 28th from 7p until 11p, the New Lenox Public Library will host it's 4th Annual Spring Arts Festival.  This unique event boasts a silent art and specialty item auction, a wine raffle where everyone wins a bottle of wine, Split the Pot raffle, gourmet hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar.  For your entertainment we will have the musical stylings of Cecile Savage and Koko Brunson; David Curbis will do some Palm Reading and Bill Begos will draw you a caricature of yourself while you sip our signature drink, the "Cosette'-tini.   Celebrating Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, you will enjoy a few moments in our PHOTO CORNER for some fun pictures to take with you at the end of the evening!

The Friends will be honoring two former Library Board Presidents on Saturday night as well.  Elmer Wilhelm and Carl Fosnaugh will be awarded the LIFETIME DEDICATION AWARD for their unceasing commitment to the New Lenox Public Library, for without their love of the New Lenox Public Library it would not be the wonderful library district that it has become today.

Also making an appearance is HGTV's Design Star Season 6 contestant, Karl Sponholtz.  He will be on hand to sign autographs, have his picture taken with you or to just chat about design.
